Strategic Plan 2023-2028: A Vision for the Future

Guided by faith. Strengthened by mission. Focused on the future.

For over 25 years, Royal Palm Academy has been dedicated to providing a faith-filled, academically excellent Catholic education, forming students in mind, body, and spirit. To ensure a strong and sustainable future, RPA has developed a comprehensive Strategic Plan that focuses on the school’s continued growth, excellence, and long-term mission impact.

Rooted in our Catholic identity and core values, this plan reflects our commitment to forming tomorrow’s leaders, strengthening our school community, and securing the long-term vitality of RPA for generations to come.

Our Mission

Preserving Our Mission for Generations

Royal Palm Academy is committed to preserving and strengthening the mission that has guided us for over 25 years. Rooted in Catholic faith and academic excellence, our 2023–2028 Strategic Plan ensures that RPA remains a thriving independent Catholic school for generations to come.

This comprehensive plan outlines our path toward becoming a nationally recognized Catholic educational institution, ensuring that faith, scholarship, and leadership remain central to the RPA experience. At the heart of this plan are our three top priorities—Mission, People, and Facilities—each essential to securing RPA’s future.

Just as our Welcome Home Capital Campaign is establishing a permanent home for our students, this strategic plan reinforces every aspect of our foundation by deepening our Catholic mission, investing in our teachers, and ensuring our campus serves future generations. These six key initiatives will safeguard and advance our mission as we continue to teach the mind, educate the heart, and form the character of tomorrow’s leaders.

Our Sincerest Thanks & Gratitude

We extend our heartfelt gratitude to everyone who made the Royal Palm Academy Strategic Plan (2023–2028) possible. Special thanks to our Strategic Planning Committee, comprised of trustees, administrators, faculty, parents, alumni, and community members, whose dedication and insight helped shape this vision for RPA’s future.

We are also deeply grateful to each student, parent, faculty, and staff member who participated in the process—whether through surveys, roundtable discussions, or one-on-one conversations—your voices have played a vital role in preserving and strengthening the mission of Royal Palm Academy.

Thank you for your unwavering support and commitment to RPA. May we continue to pray for one another as we work together to ensure that faith, excellence, and leadership remain at the heart of our school for generations to come.
